High Martial Arts: A Cataclysmic Beast? I am the only Beast Tamer!

Canglan City.

now.

A dead silence.

After Xiahou disappeared, countless spirits remained frozen in place, like puppets, no longer able to move.

And above the sky.

Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu were also stunned after Lu Yu suddenly disappeared.

They immediately tried to call out to Lu Yu with their minds.

but……

We've lost contact!

then.

They then attempted to return to the Beast Taming Space on their own.

But it failed again!

Xiao Jiu attempts to use time rewind.

but……

No matter how you look back.

Lu Yu's figure never appeared again!

It's as if...

He has never appeared before, from the past to the present!

On the other side...

Nearly ten thousand outstanding candidates stood before the dilapidated temple.

He stared blankly at the spot in the sky where Lu Yu had disappeared.

In an instant.

No one could utter a single word.

until...

A very, very long time passed.

Neither Lu Yu nor Xiahou Yi appeared.

Jiang Xueying's anxious and tense cries finally broke the oppressive silence!

"Shiyao, no, Empress!"

Do you even know what's going on right now?

Why did Lu Yu suddenly disappear?

"Has he encountered some danger?"

"..."

Never at any moment.

Jiang Xueying has never been this flustered before.

So much so.

She could only turn to Qin Shiyao for help!

"Amazing skill!"

Faced with Jiang Xueying's persistent questioning.

The Empress remained silent for a long time before finally uttering these two words.

This statement came out.

Jiang Xueying's delicate body trembled, and she stood frozen in place.

The rest of the students, upon hearing this, all widened their eyes and gasped for breath!

Amazing skill!

Just two simple words!

The meaning behind it...

It's chilling and unimaginable!

"Yes……"

"Do you mean that?"

A pallor appeared on Jiang Xueying's pretty face, but she still asked again, unwilling to give up.

The Empress could only sigh.

"Divine skill."

She said softly:

"A skill possessed only by gods."

"Anyone below the god level cannot resist, nor is it possible to resist."

She paused slightly as she spoke:

"Although Xiahou Yi is not a true god-level powerhouse, he is still a god-level origin rank."

"He also possesses divine skills."

"I clearly sensed an aura unique to gods in that beam of light just now..."

Done.

The Empress sighed again, her voice low and drawn out.

to be frank.

From the start of this war of the undead until now.

Lu Yu's performance was nothing short of perfect.

but……

God-level, it is still god-level!

Even with the protection of the Time-Space Dragon, Lu Yu still couldn't stop this divine skill from locking onto him!

Or.

Let alone Lu Yu.

Even if the God of War from Earth himself were to come, he would not be able to avoid this divine skill!

The Empress's explanation was completely undisguised.

And now that things have come to this...

Both the students present and the billions of viewers in the live stream were well aware of this.

The current "Qin Shiyao" is the former Empress of Zixing, a god-level powerhouse.

So.

No one doubted the Empress's words.

only……

Countless people still cannot accept it!

"Ahhh—"

"Why, why?!"

"They were about to win! They were clearly in the lead!"

Why is this happening?

"It's over!"

"This battle has been held up by Lu Yu alone until now. If Lu Yu arrives, it will be completely over!"

"Is there anyone who can save Lu Yu? Where are the powerful figures among our human race's leaders? Please lend a hand!"

"Sigh, didn't you hear what the Empress said? That's a divine skill, a god-level ability. Even a martial god couldn't use it!"

"..."

Countless people were discussing, cursing, and feeling resentful.

but……

It's no use!

Lu Yu eventually disappeared.

even……

They had no idea what had happened to Lu Yu, or whether he was alive or dead!

especially……

People noticed that Lu Yu's two giant dragon pets in the sky were also extremely nervous and panicked at this moment.

A heavy weight settled in everyone's hearts!

"well--"

"Perhaps there is still a chance."

"That divine skill should be a domain-type skill, and it did not directly threaten Lu Yu's life."

The Empress remained silent for a long time, but finally couldn't bear to see Jiang Xueying so distraught and on the verge of collapse, so she softly offered a word of comfort.

Jiang Xueying heard this.

His eyes, which had been completely dark, suddenly lit up again.

"Really?"

"Was Lu Yu really not in danger?"

Jiang Xueying pressed for an answer.

The empress thought for a moment, then pointed to the two giant dragons in the sky.

"Although I don't know much about the Beastmaster profession, I guess..."

"If Lu Yu really falls to that point, his two pet beasts will probably die along with him."

The Empress had barely finished speaking.

Swah——

In the void.

There were no warning signs whatsoever.

Suddenly, a beam of light burst forth.

The color of the light was pitch black!

It was exactly the same as the one that hit Lu Yu before!

This moment.

Everyone was stunned!

And then...

Under the astonished gaze of countless people.

The dark light fell upon the Empress!

hum-

buzz-

Just for a moment.

The empress's figure then vanished.

at the same time.

In the void.

A hysterical shout could be heard from afar.

The shout came from Xiahou Yi!

"His Majesty!"

"This sinful subject will make you see it with your own eyes..."

"A beast tamer is no match for a necromancer!"

"He's not nearly as good as me either!"

"I am your most loyal follower and your most steadfast right-hand man!"

Swah——

The empress's figure disappeared.

Yet, Xiahou Yi's few shouts seemed to still echo throughout the world.

This moment.

No one knew what had happened or what Lu Yu had encountered.

The only thing I can do...

It seems that all I can do is pray, pray silently.

"Lu Yu!"

"You won't abandon me, will you?"

Jiang Xueying, who was almost crying her eyes out, squatted on the ground with her knees drawn up to her chest, murmuring word by word.

And Shangguan Xiaoyue.

She lowered her head and kept repeating herself in a voice only she could hear:

"You said you'd let me sleep with you, and I'm all ready. You can't go back on your word..."

"You must come back, you can't break your promise..."

"We can't break our promise!"
